  • Pink Ruffled Tulips

    Pink Ruffled Tulips

    I didn’t get the name of these. They were just gorgeous. Such full heads, packed together to form this delicious carpet of flowers. I’m going to use these photos as backgrounds and wallpapers and in my planner. Just divine. I still have the Dior ones to share as well – those are stunning too, maybe…

    The variety of colours and shapes was truly amazing. So hard to choose. I just adore the classic shape, shown in the peach-coloured ones in the gallery. But I think the peony style is definitely my favourite of all – there are many more of those to come. I hope you won’t get bored with…

    Floratuin Julianadorp 1

    On Sunday, we drove from Amsterdam to Julianadorp to see the tulips. It’s a tulip farm, with so many different varieties of tulips on display, in small garden beds, and a big area where you can pick your own tulips to take home. Of course, we could not resist photographing all of the wonderful varieties.…

    I wish I’d made a note of the names of the tulips. Some were very imaginative, and some were perfectly fitting. This one is sublime, is it not? The colours, the vibrancy, the ruffles, and the dance of petals. Love 💕 x desleyjane

  • Editing Tulip Photos

    Editing Tulip Photos

    Those who know me, know that I love to edit photos, to see how much I can get out of an image, what details I can find, how I can make it even prettier than reality. It’s an art, and a science, and it’s also a source of relaxation for me. Here are some edits…

    Five Minutes with a Tulip – RegularRandom

    If you aren’t connected with me on social media, you may not know that I am currently vacationing in Amsterdam. What a glorious city. I was here four years ago (to the day actually) and have come back for a two week visit. Yesterday, we went to a tulip farm and of course I brought…

  • The last set of shots with the Raspberry Cronut.

    The last set of shots with the Raspberry Cronut.

    So I should tell you about this cronut – the icing is raspberry and the filling is a passionfruit custard. And the top has little chunks of crushed meringue and freeze-dried raspberries. x  desleyjane

    A little more time with the Raspberry Cronut.

    After my RegularRandom with this Raspberry Cronut, I had a play with the layout and details, and the editing. x desleyjane

    Five Minutes with a Raspberry Cronut – RegularRandom

    Before the florist last week, I dropped by my usual bakery, The Village Bakery in Brunswick, to pick up some bread. And of course, when I Saw this pretty pink cronut, how could I not bring it home to photograph it?! Next post, I’ll go in closer and play with the editing a little. Would…

    Up close with these pretty delphiniums.

    In my most recent RegularRandom, I featured this bouquet of Delphiniums and Baby’s Breath. After the five minutes, I spent some time going in closer, and then some extra time in editing. I really enjoyed this one. x desleyjane

    Five Minutes with Delphiniums – RegularRandom

    I recently found out that I’m allergic to dahlias – gasp! Such a shame, since as you probably know, I like to pick up a little bouquet every now and again to photograph and dahlias tend to be in prevalent in those. So today, the florist and I decided to put together these delphiniums and…

    Sunrise 03.03.19

    I’ve been up well before sunrise 4 days out of 6 this week. Early starts at work are not the best fun, but at least I get to catch the sunrise. This morning (Sunday) was the first time I felt compelled to actually go out and watch the sunrise, and I was very happy to…
